Actually, I somehow understand what he wants, considering we'll soon have lambdas and closures. I mean, in case of javascript a variable can hold as well a function as it can hold anything else. Anyway, I don't think this is the case for PHP. I do find it ugly to write $function(), but I guess I'll live with it as I did until now. Cheers, I.
